Some Americans who were born and raised during the Great
Depression, have passed from this life although many still remain
with us. Many famous books, movies and television shows have
covered stories from that generation and many of them continue to
fascinate the current generations living today (e.g. "The Great
Depression" mini series on HBO and "The Walton's" reruns from the
1970s). It was an era before the popularity of television itself
and people lived simpler lives and enjoyed the basic pleasures of
life such as children playing in the outdoors and families enjoying
each others company without the popular electronic distractions we
are surrounded by today. People of The Depression Era also
experienced many struggles and challenges in life that are not
experienced on the same scale by Americans today. Stories of
getting by in the face of adversities during The Great Depression
and of the bond between family and friends are inspiring and they
often demonstrate the triumph of the human spirit and the power of
human love. The stories that will be related within the pages of
this book include those very attributes and many also simply
include the nostalgic memories of an era gone by, through the eyes
of the late Glenn Thomas Doyle, as compiled and presented as a
collection of short stories, in their original form and language,
by his niece, Janice F. Lowrance. It is my sincere hope that I have
done justice to the formatting of these wonderful and inspiring
related stories from some of the "Good Old Days" of the American
experience. -Janice F. Lowrance BOOK HEADINGS: Childhood During the
Great Depression A Southern Boy's Preteen Years From Working At
Home To Defending My Country My Life After Military Discharge The
